Ambience radiation generator

The Ambience Radiation Generator is a power generation device with no GUI that pulls from environmental sources of radiation to produce small amounts of power constantly, reducing the amount of environmental radiation in the process. This means that it is possible to have a literally infinite source of power by using it in combination with passively radioactive materials, but its output even in the best of cases is far, far below every other single type of existing generator making it very rarely a practical choice.

Obtaining

Crafted at a crafting table with cheap and easily obtained materials that will be available early in the game.

Usage

Will actively pull from current chunk radiation levels and reduce them in return for power output with a greater amount of power being produced for a greater amount of radiation present. Works best when placed next to a block which acts as an active source of environmental radiation, such as a radioactive barrel or a piece of corium. Does not absorb all radiation emitted by blocks surrounding it, meaning that radiation from sufficiently radioactive sources may leak out from its influence before it can neutralize them. Due to its strong radiation absorbing properties and low power output, it is actually often best used as a powerful early game radiation absorbing device as one of equal performance will require the use of significantly rarer materials than what is needed for the ARG
